IMPROVEMENT IN HUSKING GLOVES AND MITTENS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No, 168,836, dated October 19, 1875; application filed April 27, 1875.

To all whom it may concern:

-Be it known that I, HENRY L. HALL, of Chicago, county of Cook and State of Illinois, have invented an Improvement in Gloves and Mittens to be used in husking corn, in handling brick, stone, and other rough material, and in other rough work, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing as a partof this description.

My invention consists in fastening small metal plates or disks to the parts of the gloves or mittens most exposed in use, the plates or disks being so small and so located as not to impair the flexibility of the glove or mitten on the hand, and at the same time making them much more durable by protecting the material of which they are made from wearing out.

HENRY L. HALL.
